Vitamins: Essential Dietary Components
Vitamins are essential, organic compounds needed for important metabolic reactions in the body. They are not a source of energy. Instead, they promote many energy-yielding and other reactions in the body, thereby aiding in the growth, development, and maintenance of various body tissues.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide3
Vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat soluble, whereas the B-vitamins and vitamin C are water soluble.
Vitamins cannot be synthesized in the body at all or are synthesized in insufficient amounts.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide4
Absorption of vitamins
Fat-soluble vitamins are absorbed along with dietary fat. Thus adequate absorption depends on the efficient use of bile and pancreatic lipase in the small intestine to digest dietary fat and the adequate absorptive capacity of the intestinal mucosa.Under optimal condition, about 40 to 90% of the fat-soluble vitamins are absorbed when they are consumed in recommended amounts.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide5
Malabsorption of vitamins
Fat malabsorption (resulting from GI tract and pancreatic disease) may cause poor absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. In disease states that limit fat digestion, fat-soluble vitamin absorption may be compromised, thereby increasing the risk of deficiency in these individuals.
Dr.

2012Slide6
Transport of vitamins
They travel by way of the lymphatic system into general circulation, carried by chylomicrons.
Dr.
Latifah

Oboudi
2012Slide7
Vitamin Toxicity
Fat –soluble vitamins are excreted less readily from the body than water-soluble vitamins and thus pose a potential threat for toxicity, especially of vitamins A and D. Toxicities of these fat- soluble vitamins generally occur with high doses of supplements, rather than from foods
Dr.

Vitamin A
Vitamin A contributes to the maintenance of vision, the normal development of cells (especially mucous-forming cells), and immune function.
Dr.
Latifah

Oboudi
2012Slide9
Vitamin A
Vitamin A refers to the preformed retinoids and provitamin A carotenoids
that can be converted to vitamin A activity.
Retinoids
is a collective term for the biologically active forms of vitamin A because, unlike carotenoids, they do not need to be converted to become biologically active.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide10
Vitamin A
Retinoids exist in 3 forms: retinal(an aldehyde), retinol(an alcohol), and retinoic acid.
Carotenoids
are yellow-orange pigmented materials in vegetables and fruits, some of which are
provitamins
---that is, they can be converted into vitamin A.
A plant derivative, known as beta-carotene, along with 2 other carotenoids
(alpha-carotene and beta- cryptoxanthin), yields vitamin A after metabolism by the small intestine or liver.
Dr.
Latifah

Vitamin A in Foods
Retinoids (preformed vitamin A) are found in foods of animal origin, such as liver, fish, fish oils, fortified milk and eggs.A carotenoids are found mainly in dark green and yellow-orange vegetables and fruits, such as carrots, spinach and other greens, winter squash, sweet potatoes, broccoli, mangoes, cantaloupe, peaches, and apricots.

Food sources of vitamin A
Dr.
Latifah

2012Slide15
At one time the amounts of vitamin A were expressed in
International Units (IUs). Today, there are more sensitive means for measuring nutrients. Consequently, milligram (1/1000 of a gram) and microgram (1/1,000,000 of a gram) measurements have generally replaced IUs as the units of measure. However, some food and vitamin supplement labels may still display the older IU value.Dietary vitamin A activity is currently expressed in Retinol Activity Equivalents(RAE)

Vitamin A Needs
The RDA for vitamin A is 900 µg Retinol Activity Equivalents(RAE) per day for adult men and 700 µg RAE per day for adult women.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide18
Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion of Vitamin AUp to 90% of retinol is absorbed into the cells of the small intestine.After absorption, a fatty acid is attached to retinol to form a new retinyl ester. These retinyl esters are packaged into chylomicrons before entering the lymphatic circulation.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide19
Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion of Vitamin A
The provitamin A carotenoids can be enzymatically split within the intestinal cells or liver cells to form retinal or, to lesser extent, retinoic acid.The carotenoid absorption is much lower than that of retinol.After being absorbed in the small intestine , carotenoids can be cleaved to yield retinal, which is then converted to retinol.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide20
Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion of Vitamin A
The chylomicrons deliver vitamin A to tissue for storage or cellular use.Storage: Over 90% of the body’s vitamin A stores are found in the liver, with small amounts in adipose tissue, kidneys, bone marrow, testicles, and eyes. Normally, the liver stores enough vitamin A to last for several months to protect against vitamin A deficiency.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide21
Excretion of Vitamin A
Although vitamin A is not readily excreted by the body, some is lost in the urine.Kidney disease increases the risk of vitamin A toxicity because this urinary route of excretion is compromised.

Vitamin A Toxicity
Preformed vitamin A can be quite toxic when taken at doses 2 to 4 times or more the RDA.
Use of vitamin A supplements is especially dangerous during pregnancy because it can lead to fetal malformations

Vitamin A Toxicity
Consuming the right amount of vitamin A is critical to overall health. Avery low (deficient) or very high (toxic)vitamin A intake (as retinoids) can produce harmful symptoms and can even lead to death.

Vitamin D
In presence of sunlight, skin cell synthesize a sufficient supply of vitamin D from a derivative of cholesterol. Dietary source is not required if synthesis is adequate to meet needs, the vitamin is more correctly classified as a “conditional” vitamin or prohormone (a precursor of an active hormone).
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide29
Vitamin D
In the absence of UV light exposure, an adequate dietary intake of vitamin D is essential to prevent the deficiency diseases rickets and
osteomalacia
and to provide for cellular needs.
After exposure to the sun, humans produce vitamin D₃ (cholecalciferol) from a derivative of cholesterol.
The liver and kidneys each add a hydroxyl group(-OH) to this to yield the active form of vitamin D ( 1,25 dihydroxy D₃, or calcitriol).
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide30
Vitamin D₂ in foods
The best food sources of vitamin D are:Fatty fish (e.g. sardines, mackerel, and salmon).Cod liver oil.Fortified milk.
Some fortified breakfast cereals.
Although eggs, butter, liver, and a few brands of margarine contain some vitamin D, large servings must be eaten to obtain an appreciable amount of the vitamin. Thus, these foods are not considered a significant source.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide31
Cod liver oil was a common supplements for children in the US until 1933, when milk was first fortified with vitamin D
Dr.
Latifah

2012Slide32
Vitamin D₂ in foods
Most fortified foods and supplements containing vitamin D are in the form of ergocalciferol, or vitamin D₂, the same form found naturally in foods. Ergocalciferol has vitamin D activity in humans, but in lesser amounts than provided by cholecalciferol (vitamin D₃).

Vitamin D₃ Formation in the Skin
The synthesis of vitamin D₃ begins with a compound called 7-dehydrocholesterol, a precursor of cholesterol synthesis located in the skin.1 ring on the molecule undergoes a chemical transformation, forming the more stable vitamin D₃ (cholecalciferol).
This change allows vitamin D₃ to enter the bloodstream for transport to the liver and kidneys, where it undergoes hydroxylation (the addition of -OH) and subsequent conversion to its bioactive form 1,25 dihydroxy D₃ (calcitriol).
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide36
Vitamin D₃ Formation in the Skin
For many individuals, sun exposure provides 80 to 100% of the vitamin D₃ required by the body.The amount of sun exposure needed , however, depend on the time of day, the geographic location, the season of the year, one’s age, one’s skin color, and the use of sunscreen.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide37
The production of vitamin D₃ in the skin decreases by about 70% when one reaches the age of 70. older people are advised to get small amounts of sun exposure, or to take vitamin D supplements to prevent deficiency.
The large amount of melanin (skin pigment) in dark-skinned individuals may block UV light and prevent adequate vitamin D₃ synthesis.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide38
Scientists recommend that people expose their hands, face, and arms to UV light at least 2 or 3 times a week for 10 to 15 minutes.
Individuals with dark skin may need sun exposure of 3o minutes or more (or vitamin D supplementation).People who do not receive enough UV light exposure to synthesize adequate amounts of vitamin D₃ should make certain that they have adequate sources of vitamin D in their diets.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide39
Vitamin D Needs
The adequate intake for vitamin D is 5µg/day (200 IU/day) for people under age 51, 10µg/day (400 IU/ day) for people between 51 and 70, and 15µg/day (600 IU/ day) for older adults.Older adults may need 20 to 25µg/day (800 to 1000 IU/ day) from a combination of vitamin D-fortified foods and a supplement to decrease the risk of bone loss and other chronic diseases.
The daily value used on food and supplements labels is 10 µg.
Breastfed infants recommended to be given a vitamin D supplement of 5 µg/day (200 IU) until they are weaned to infant foods fortified with, or rich in, vitamin D .

Whether synthesized in the skin or obtained from dietary sources, vitamin D ultimately function as a hormone: 1,25(OH)₂ vitamin D₃ (calcitriol)
Dr.

2012Slide42
Function of Vitamin D
Vitamin D has hormone like functions, which help regulate the body’s concentration of calcium and phosphorus
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide43
Figure 12-13 The active vitamin D
Hormone– 1,25 (OH)₂ vitamin D₃ --and parathyroid hormone interact to control blood calcium concentration. Low blood calcium is a trigger for the following actions, all of which raise blood calcium levels. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and 1,25(OH)₂ vitamin D₃ mobilize calcium from the bone.
PTH also
a. Reduces calcium excretion by the kidneys.
b. stimulates kindly synthesis of 1,25(OH)₂ vitamin D₃.
1,25(OH)₂ vitamin D₃ stimulates intestinal calcium absorption.
Conversely, when calcium levels in the blood become too high, the hormone
calcitonin
responds by promoting calcium disposition in the bone (see chapter 14)/.

2012Slide44
Function of Vitamin D
Vitamin D promotes increased intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphorus from foods to maintain blood levels of these minerals.This makes calcium and phosphorus available for body cells and for incorporation into bones when there is more than needed for basic functions.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide45
Function of Vitamin D
When blood levels of calcium and phosphorus start to fall, vitamin D (with PTH from the parathyroid gland) can release calcium and phosphorus from bone into the blood to restore blood levels of these minerals.This action can eventually weaken the bones if it continues for a prolonged period of time, it helps provide the calcium and phosphorus needed for many basic life functions. If the bones did not supply calcium and phosphorus for these functions, a person could quickly have serious, even fatal, health consequences. Thus, vitamin D preserves these important functions even if dietary intakes of these minerals are inadequate.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide46
Function of Vitamin D
Vitamin D has important functions beyond its role in maintaining calcium and phosphorus homeostasis and bone health.Vitamin D also is involved in immune function and cellular metabolism.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide47
Function of Vitamin D
Vitamin D also may be involved in cell cycle regulation.Additionally, vitamin D may decrease the risk of certain types of infections and autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, through its action in the immune system and offer protection against diabetes, hypertension, and certain cancers.

Vitamin E
The importance of vitamin E was first noted in 1922 in rats.Vitamin E was not fully recognized as an essential nutrient in humans until the mid-1960s.The first RDA for vitamin E was established in 1968.
Vitamin E is a family of 8 naturally occurring compounds- 4 tocopherols ( alpha, beta, gamma, delta) and 4 tocotrienols (alpha, beta, gamma, delta)—with widely varying degrees of biological activity.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide52
Vitamin E
The most active form of the vitamin E is alpha-tocopherol. This is the form found in some foods and in varying amounts in vitamin supplements.Gamma-tocopherol is a potentially beneficial form of vitamin E found in many vegetable oils. It does not have as much biological activity as alpha-
tocopherol
.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide53
Vitamin E in foods
Vitamin E is plentiful in plant oils(e.g., cottonseed, canola, safflower, and sunflower oils), wheat germ, asparagus, almonds, peanuts, and sunflower seeds.Products made from the plant oils—margarine, shortenings, and salad dressings– also are good sources.

Food sources of vitamin E
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide55
Vitamin E in foods
Animal fats and dairy products contain little vitamin E.The vitamin E content of a food depends on harvesting, processing, storage, and cooking because vitamin E is highly susceptible to destruction by oxygen, metals, light, and deep-fat frying. Thus, foods that are highly processed and/or deep-fried are usually poor sources of vitamin E.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide56
Vitamin E needs
The RDA for vitamin E is 15 mg/day of alpha-tocopherol for both men and women. The 15-mg allotment is equivalent to 22 IU of a natural source and 33 IU of a synthetic source of vitamin E .
Adults consume, on average, only two-thirds of the RDA for vitamin E each day.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide57
Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion of Vitamin E
Absorption can vary from 20 to 70% of dietary intake. Vitamin E must be incorporated into micelles in the small intestine, a process dependent on bile and pancreatic enzymes. Once taken up by the intestinal cells, vitamin E is incorporated into chylomicrons for transport by the lymph and eventually the blood.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide58
Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion of Vitamin E
As chylomicrons are broken down, most of the vitamin E is carried to the liver as chylomicron remnants. A small amount is carried directly to other tissues. The liver repackages the vitamin E from the chylomicron remnants with other lipoproteins (
VLDL, LDL, and HDL
) for delivery to body tissues.
Vitamin E carried by these lipoproteins.
Vitamin E does not accumulate in the liver; instead, most of the vitamin E in the body is localized in adipose tissue.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide59
Excretion of Vitamin E
Vitamin E can be excreted via the bile, urine, and skin.However, because vitamin E absorption is often low, most vitamin E is excreted via the small amount of bile that exits the body in the feces.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide60
Function of Vitamin E
Vitamin E is an antioxidant that stops chain reactions caused by free radicals that can potentially damage cells. Vitamin E acts primarily in lipid-rich areas of the body, where free radicals can initiate a chain of reactions known as peroxidation.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide61
Function of Vitamin E
Lipid peroxidation reactions break apart fatty acids and create free radicals called lipid peroxyl radicals (also called reactive oxygen species because they contain oxygen radicals).The chain of reactions continues to break apart fatty acids until 2 free radicals pair and stabilize each other. However, many lipid peroxyl radicals may be produced through these reactions before stabilization occurs.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide62
Function of Vitamin E
Vitamin E is one of the most effective mechanisms for stopping lipid peroxidation chain reaction in the body. By donating hydrogen to lipid radicals, vitamin E stops the chain of oxidation reaction, which protects the lipids in the body. For example, recall that cell membranes are composed of a phospholipid bilayer
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide63
Fat-soluble vitamin E can donate an electron to stop free radical chain reaction. If not interrupted, these reactions cause extensive damage to cell membranes
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide64
Function of Vitamin E
To vitamin E, the body has various other antioxidant compounds, such as glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase, to protect against oxidative damage.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide65
The body does not rely solely on vitamin E for antioxidant protection. Such protection is a team effort, utilizing a number of nutrients, metabolites, and enzyme systems.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide66
Vitamin E Deficiency
Overt vitamin E deficiency is rare in humans. Vitamin E deficiency is characterized by the premature breakdown of red blood cells(hemolysis) and the development of
hemolytic anemia.
Vitamin E deficiency also can impair immune function and cause neurological changes in the spinal cord and peripheral nervous system.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide67
Vitamin E Toxicity
Toxicity from megadose therapy inhibits vitamin K activity and, in turn, increases the risk of hemorrhage.
Dr.
Latifah

2012Slide68
Vitamin K
The discovery of vitamin K centered on its role in blood clotting.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide69
Vitamin K
Vitamin K contributes to the body’s blood-clotting ability by facilitating the conversion of precursor proteins, such as prothrombin, to active clotting factors that promote blood coagulation.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide70
Vitamin K Sources
About 10% of the vitamin K absorbed each day comes from bacterial synthesis in the colon.The remainder comes from dietary sources, green leafy vegetables (e.g., Kale, turnip greens, parsley, salad greens, cabbage, and spinach), broccoli, peas, and green beans are the best sources.
Vegetable oils, such as soy and canola, also are good sources.
Vitamin K can be destroyed by exposure to light.

Vitamin K Needs
For women, the adequate intake for vitamin K is 90µg/day; for men, it is 120µg/day. The daily value for vitamin K is 80µg/day.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide73
Absorption, Transport, Storage, and Excretion of Vitamin K
Approximately 80% of dietary vitamin K as phylloquinone and menaquinone is taken up by the small intestine and incorporated into chylomicrons. This process requires bile and pancreatic enzymes.The menquinones synthesized by bacteria in the colon also are absorbed, but provide only 10% of the vitamin K we need.
Vitamin K can be incorporated into the lipoproteins VLDL and LDL for transport throughout the body or for storage in the liver.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide74
Excretion of Vitamin K
Most vitamin K excretion occurs via the bile that passes out of the body in the feces, with a small amount of excretion via the urine.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide75
Function of Vitamin K
Vitamin K is needed for the synthesis of blood-clotting factors by the liver and the conversion of preprothrombin to the active blood-clotting factor called prothrombin.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide76
Forming a blood clot requires the participation of vitamin K in both the intrinsic and extrinsic blood-clotting pathways. Vitamin K specifically imparts calcium-binding capacity to the proteins in these pathways, as in the conversion of preprothrombin to prothrombin, an active clotting factor.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide77
Function of Vitamin K
Vitamin K also may play a role in bone metabolism. Vitamin K also may help protect the body from inflammation, thereby providing protection against cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide78
Vitamin K deficiency
A deficiency of vitamin K is rare, but it can occur with prolonged use of antibiotics that disrupt vitamin K synthesis or with impaired fat absorption. Vitamin K deficiency also can occur in newborns. Newborn infants are given vitamin K injections within 6 hours of delivery to prevent this possible vitamin K deficiency.
Dr.
Latifah
Al-
Oboudi
2012Slide79
Vitamin K Toxicity
To date, no upper level has been set for vitamin K. Although vitamin K can be stored in the liver and bone, it is more readily excreted than other fat-soluble vitamins.Can cause hemolytic anemia.
